Poker

A competetive, gambling card game, the premise of poker is simple, but the nuances are masterful.

Objective: Players aim to make the best five-card hand or to bluff opponents into folding.
Card Setup: A standard 52-card deck is used, and each player is dealt two private cards (hole cards).
Community Cards: Five community cards are dealt face-up in three stages: the Flop (3 cards), the Turn (1 card), and the River (1 card).
Gameplay:
Blinds: The game starts with two forced bets, the Small Blind and Big Blind, made by players to the left of the dealer.
Betting Rounds: There are four betting rounds: Pre-Flop (after hole cards are dealt), Post-Flop, Turn, and River. Players can Check, Bet, Call, Raise, or Fold.
Winning: The best five-card hand, using any combination of hole cards and community cards, wins the pot. If all opponents fold, the remaining player wins the pot.
